Will You Try These 2022 Wellness Trends?

As your Wilmington holistic and biological dentist, we wish you and your family total wellness from your tooth to your toes throughout this coming year. We’ve been reading some interesting articles about upcoming wellness trends for 2022 and thought we’d share a few with you.

1) Gua Sha and Face Yoga

Are you already familiar with face yoga? It seems to be gaining popularity over recent years to soften and relax facial muscles so you can alleviate tension and stress. Many people of all ages are using this type of yoga to:

– Improve your overall facial appearance

– Help release tension

– Erase unwanted lines and wrinkles

– Increase your blood flow and circulation

Generally, Gua Sha stones are used to help give you the results you’re looking for as you practice facial yoga exercises. Precious stones can also be used to reduce puffiness, reduce dark circles, and promote healthy lymphatic draining.

2) Bring Back the Bath

Another restorative wellness ritual your biological and holistic dentist in Wilmington can stand behind is soaking in a nice bath. It can help you to relax, relieve stress, and give your skin a refresh. Try adding a bit of Epsom salt to your soak to help as a natural anti-inflammatory. Even consider adding some essential oils to your bath, using a face mask, or deep conditioning your hair.

3) How Well Do You Sleep

We know a thing or two about sleep and sleep apnea, and the way we go to sleep and wake up could become more advanced and monitored in 2022. As technology advances and changes every year, tracking sleep patterns and making adjustments could become the new normal for sleep treatment. Sleep tracking devices could soon be something we all wear to bed. To add a little more luxury and restful sleep to your life, try using aromatherapy oils such as lavender and avoid staying on your phone or tablet for too long in the evening.

What are some of your healthy living goals for 2022? We’d love to see you and your family at our biological and holistic Wilmington dental office. If you have any questions about new ways to improve your oral and overall health, know that our highly-trained doctors and team members are always here to answer your questions. Together, we can make the most out of the new year that’s now upon us!
